Sunset Boulevard

As you can see from our picture of sunset at Ligres, even at the height of the tourist season there are still places on Crete where you can get away from it all and take time out. Watching the sun go down while gently sipping a glass of wine certainly has its attractions! Life in town in August has been fun, too, if hectic. There has certainly been plenty to keep us busy, (more than enough to keep us out of mischief, some might say, though the people who say this might not know us terribly well!), and as usual at this time of year we have been glad to welcome back many visiting friends to Rethymnon. Partying once again, and it’s been great to see you all! But the nights are starting to get cooler, and September should bring with it a slower rate of pace. We’ll let you know next month!

September Highlights

On our Spotlight page we focus on the picturesque and historic seaside village of Panormo. We bring you some entertaining travellers’ tales, there is a romantic story about tortoises and a curious item about a carnivorous plant. All this plus news and views from around town, music reviews, updates from local enterprises, details of local community and charity events and much more!

About ‘The Bugle’

The Rethymnon Coffee Morning Bugle is an independent, monthly FREE publication that was started in January 2007 by the same team responsible for the www.rethymnon.biz website — Kate and Luc Brusten, who have been living and working in Rethymnon for a number of years. The Bugle is geared not only towards the international community living in Rethymnon, but also towards anyone who has an interest in the town. The aim of the publication is to be both informative and light hearted. We welcome feedback and written / photographic contributions from readers. We particularly welcome feature articles that have a Rethymnon slant; if you are considering submitting an article we would ask that you keep to an upper word limit of 500 words.

You will find our contact details and a listing of hard copy distribution outlets at the bottom of our This Month Page.

We hope you enjoy reading our September issue!
